I recently purchased Mystic Visions and I’m in LOVE with it. It smells so freaking good! Even when I don’t have it lit I have to stop and just smell it lol.
Thanks for this video ~ When you do a custom blend do you do a 50/50 blens? Also do these smell just as nice in wax melts (I used BW921) I have been watching you grow and so glad you have become so successful.
I feel bad that I keep buying so many Saturday Morning Cartoons wax melts 😅 I can't get enough of it. I melt it while working to get me through the day. I'm really excited to try the new limited edition ones that I just ordered though, so maybe we'll find another favorite for me that doesn't make you sick 💜😂
😂 oh my gosh please don’t worry! Buy away! It’s mainly Saturday Morning Cartoons candles while their being burned that bugs me the most lol! But as a candle maker it comes with the territory! 😆 Thank you for purchasing!! Hope you enjoy all the limited wax melts! ☺️❤️❤️
Thanks so much for your transparency I have just made 1 batch of wax melts so far with soy 444 but I love it. A fun hobby and candles/melts are great gifts. I have a lot of ideas I want to try this winter and I am hoping to do a craft show in the spring though it seems early to mid fall would be the best time for a craft show
People don't change much in what they love! It'll be interesting to see what the next generation loves. I sell a lot of Blue Hawaiian Punch! Younger people, say the 22-27 year old crowd. It's one of the fragrances my son chose for his wedding favors. 😊❤😊
I made enough Fruit Loops candles to test wick size and make one candle as a going away gift. I will probably list it as a novelty, made-to-order thing. Maybe take a few to craft fairs. My current obsession is Saffron Cedarwood from CandleScience. I think I need to turn this into a room spray. Thanks for the education, Erica!
Good point on scents you like vs what others do. I personally really dislike Patchouli and Nag, but others love it. So I am making custom blend(s) that are unique to me.
Some of my best selling would have to be bramble berrys galactic skies and dark crystal, natures gardens dragons blood and fruity rings, and Aztecs pink sands dupe.
Question. How do you deal with the strong smells while candle making? Maybe I have a sensitive nose but it does give me a headache. Obviously opening doors windows helps but do you have any other tips? Thanks!!!
I think these two videos will help you! czcams.com/video/l_bfaORbAwg/video.htmlsi=YlITKi-PnMuH3XIa czcams.com/video/MCFSt0GxpOk/video.htmlsi=05L64bQRksT-Z-tN They are about ventilation and why I wear a respirator when making candles!
It may be because it was closer to fall/winter time when I made that last video! Cashmere plum does very well, it’s going to be a repeat in my fall collection again this year
It’s the lavenders for me 🤦🏻♀️ I am not a floral person especially in fragrance oils , I barely get through pouring a batch , it gives me what I call the play dough headache 🤣 nope do not like play dough either, my now adult children would say they were deprived 🤣 but most love the white sage and lavender & lavender driftwood, I’m like get over it Leah it’s not about you 😅 doesn’t help the headache though 😂Thank you for another great video ❣️
Thank you for sharing. What ratio do you use with the dragon blood & patchouli,,, also what about the ratio with the love spell & sweet pea? Im new to candle making, I just want to get an idea of how much of each to pour. Thank you so much in advance.
Oh, das interessiert mich auch sehr. Komme aus Deutschland und habe erst vor 4 Wochen begonnen, Kerzen herzustellen. Ich habe hier das Problem, dass ich keine große Auswahl habe an Düften und verschiedene Arten von Wachs. Leider finde ich keine Möglichkeit in den USA zu bestellen, weil niemand nach Deutschland liefert. Wenn du eine Idee hast, lass es mich wissen
I was just thinking about you! I'd love a video on honing in on your vendor booth and how you recommend to start it.
This would be interesting! I will write this down as a video idea! ☺️
Yay! I'm excited 😊
Jamaica Me Crazy is my #1 seller year round. Guys seem to love it!

Hahaha thank you so much Caitlin!! ☺️❤️

I already have so many ideas swirling! 😄
There’s so many options 😅❤️

I love watching your videos! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for sharing what has worked for you!❤ I love following and learning from you
Thank you so much! ☺️

Omg I feel the same about the fruit loop fragrance!! It sells so well but I have to mentally and physically prepare myself to pour a batch. 🤢
Hahaha it’s really intense!!
I bought the fruit loops and people did really liked it a lot ❤❤❤
I started my business last summer and my best sellers are also Beachwood and Sea Minerals.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!! I got a sample of Vacation Island in my order from you and IT WAS AMAZING!!
So glad you liked it!! ☺️

Do you launch new scents every Season... if so, how many NEW scents do you recommend bringing in each season.
Great video
What kind of wicks do I use? I am trying the new ultra wicks from Candles and supplies.
I personally use CDN wicks!
I have been experimenting with surfs up all week! 6, 8 and 10 % FO .. what do you recommend?
Surfs up is super strong so I think between 6-8% should be just fine! I use 8
Thank you beautiful
Can you use essential oils vs synthetic fragrances in making candles? I’m super sensitive to artificial fragrance.
It's not recommended as you shouldn't burn essentials oils - although, fragrances often use 1-3 percent of essential oils in them.
Love Sea Minerals because it doesnt smell like laundry soap

They are about ventilation and why I wear a respirator when making candles!
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thank you!
Good afternoon ...Cashmere Plum is not on your 2023 list here like it was two years ago. Do you no longer recommend that scent? Thank You
It may be because it was closer to fall/winter time when I made that last video! Cashmere plum does very well, it’s going to be a repeat in my fall collection again this year

Preaching to the choir. Lavender kills my brain sells. I'm starting out and finding a way to make it without getting super ill
@@aprilnzuve6471 I just wear a respirator mask while making my candles then just leave the room when I’m done 🤣
Hahaha yep me too!! I am not a huge fan of florals in general but both Chris and I are not fans of lavender anything 😅
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo Same 😅

Have you changed the scents of candles as youve tried new similar scents?
Only very slightly on a couple of them!
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo I'm worried that I'll make a candle a certain scent but then find a mixed scent I like better or another brand.
you are so cool
